This paper aims to present a systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis of research papers published on chat generative pre-trained transformer (ChatGPT), an OpenAI-developed large-scale generative language model. The study's objective is to provide a comprehensive assessment of the present status of research on ChatGPT and identify…

Pedagogical agents are virtual characters that instructional designers include in learning environments to help students learn. Research in the area has flourished for thirty years, yet there are still critical questions about the efficacy of pedagogical agents for influencing learning and affect. As such, we conducted an umbrella review to…

Researchers are increasingly interested in enabling teachers to monitor and adapt gamification design in the context of intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs). These contributions rely on teachers' needs and preferences to adjust the gamification design according to student performance. This work extends previous studies on teachers' perception of…

This review was conducted in order to determine the specific role of intelligent technologies in the individual learning experience. The research work included consider articles published between 2014 and 2024, found in Web of Science, Scopus, and ERIC databases, and selected among 933 ?articles on the topic. Materials were checked for compliance…

In recent years, knowledge tracing (KT) within intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) has seen rapid development. KT aims to assess a student's knowledge state based on past performance and predict the correctness of the next question. Traditional KT often treats questions with different difficulty levels of the same concept as identical…

In this analysis, we review artificial intelligence (AI)-supported personalized learning (PL) systems, with an emphasis on pedagogical approaches and implementation challenges. We searched the Web of Science and Scopus databases. After the preliminary review, we examined 30 publications in detail. ChatGPT and machine learning technologies are…

Amid the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence (AI), the intricate model structures and opaque decision-making processes of AI-based systems have raised the trustworthy issues in education. We, therefore, first propose a novel three-layer knowledge tracing model designed to address trustworthiness for an intelligent tutoring system. Each…

Rising interest in artificial intelligence in education reinforces the demand for evidence-based implementation. This study investigates how tutor agents' physical embodiment and anthropomorphism (student-reported sociability, animacy, agency, and disturbance) relate to affective (on-task enjoyment) and cognitive (task performance) learning within…

Effective learning strategies based on principles like personalization, retrieval practice, and spaced repetition are often challenging to implement due to practical constraints. Here we explore the integration of AI tutors to complement learning programs in accordance with learning sciences. A semester-long study was conducted at UniDistance…

This study examines the relationship between students' attitudes toward artificial intelligence (AI) and both AI competence and conceptions. 176 UK university students completed a survey where they were asked to rate statements in relation to their attitudes towards AI, their AI competence and their conceptions about AI using 5-point Likert-type…

The use of artificial intelligence in education (AIEd) has grown exponentially in the last decade, particularly intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs). Despite the increased use of ITSs and their promise to improve learning, their real educational value remains unclear. This systematic review aims to identify the effects of ITSs on K-12 students'…

This exploratory study investigated how 367 university language educators from 48 countries/regions responded to ChatGPT in the first 10 weeks after its release. It explored awareness, use, attitudes, and perceived impact through a survey collecting both quantitative and qualitative data. Most participants demonstrated moderate awareness, but…

Our primary objective in this Special Issue was to respond to potential criticisms of AIED in potentially "perpetuating poor pedagogic practices, datafication, and introducing classroom surveillance" and to comment on the future of AIED in its coming of age. My overarching assumption in response to this line of critiques is that humans…

With the application of virtual venues in the field of education, numerous educational empirical studies have examined the impact of deep learning in the learning environment of virtual venues, but the conclusions are not always in agreement. The present study adopted the meta-analysis method and RStudio software to test the overall effect of 45…

This study investigates the influence of generative artificial intelligence (GAI), specifically AI text generators (ChatGPT), on critical thinking skills in UK postgraduate business school students. Using Bloom's taxonomy as theoretical underpinning, we adopt a mixed-method research employing a sample of 107 participants to investigate both the…
